illustration than this case affords The candid

the venerable gentleman must be accepted as
convincing and conclusive. The writer is a
prominent citizen of Mississippi The gentle.
man to whom MI. Martin refers, and to whom
he is indebted for the advice to which he owes
his final relief from years of suffering. is Mr..

night and at o'clock A. NJ. had attained a height
of eight feet above low water mark. The entire
lower side of Main street is again submerged,
and the residents making preparations for

inches deep in Main street. The body of ice in
the mouth of the river appears to be firm, and
Continues to resist the accommodating ice and wa
ter. The quantity of ice coming down is very
insignificant at present When the heavy ice
from McCalls ferry, which broke this morning
reaches here, a serious time is expected.
Should the distractions in the mouth of the
river continue to resist the pressure of the ice
and water. the general inundation of Port De-
post is inevitable. The gorge at Creswell. Pa.
remains intact. and two more tracks of the
Colum bia & Port Deposit Railroad Company are
submerged two or three feet About mile of
their track is under water at Port Deposit.

on trial for beating his wife aud woman named
Wilson to death with hammer, opened his
mouth to-day for the first time and told his story
His wife was a medium, and leader in spiritual

two women schemed to get him out of the way,
and that a DR.. Sell, who has since disappeared
was Mrs. Wilson's lover. On the night of the
murder he was awakened by some one trying to
cut his throat He sprang from his bed. and
was struck in the dark by person who. he SAYS,
was Sell. He grapped with his assailant, and.
